Description
- The present invention relates to the field of outer gear. More specifically, the present invention relates to outer gear that is designed to meet the needs of women and mothers of children.
- Ponchos have traditionally been used to protect a single individual from the element. A typical poncho is oftentimes fabricated from a single large sheet of fabric with an opening in the center for the user's head, and a piece of fabric that covers the user's head. Rainproof ponchos normally are fitted with fasteners to close the sides once the poncho is draped over the user's body, with openings provided for the user's arms. Sometimes, the piece of fabric covering the user's head is in the form of a hood attached near the opening that covers the user's head during use.
- Recently, there has been an increased popularity in devices which allow parents, or other adults, to carry babies and small children in devices close to the adult's body. Such devices may involve securing a baby on an adult's torso with the child's head close to the adult's chest.
- As a result, there exists a need for a poncho that protects a wearer from the elements while also allowing the wearer to carry a child in this way. There additionally exists a need for a poncho that provides protection from the elements for not only the adult, but also for the child.
- With the foregoing in mind, embodiments of the present invention are related to a poncho. Furthermore, the poncho may advantageously combine weather protection for an adult with weather protection for a child secured to the adult's chest.
- These and other features and advantages according to an embodiment of the present invention are provided by a poncho that is modified to be worn simultaneously by both an adult and a child. The poncho may include a hood for the adult and a separate hood for the child. The poncho may have a closeable opening in the upper front portion. When the opening is closed, the adult's may be fully protected from the elements similarly to traditional ponchos. However, when a child is secured to the adult's torso, the opening may be left open to allow the poncho to fit over both the adult and child. Additionally, the opening may be beneficial by providing more comfort for the child and allowing the child's head to be fully exposed to ambient air rather than stuck under the cloth of the poncho, which could be detrimental to the health of the child. A cape for the child may also be attached to the front of the poncho. This child cape may extend from the bottom of the poncho, over the length of the child's body that is not protected by the poncho, and include a hood that may be worn on the child's head.
- An additional warming cloth may be secured to the bottom of the poncho. This warming cloth may be placed along the bottom portion of a child secured to an adult wearer of the poncho. This warming cloth may also be placed on the handles of a stroller, bicycle, shopping cart, or the like to protect the adult wearer's hands during inclement weather.
